She is a fine researcher and dedicated to this project as she defines it.-- "Canadian Journal of Women and the Law"<br><br>Kuo presents a carefully argued set of proposals for a feminist public policy on adult heterosexual prostitution. Kuo believes that the ultimate aim of feminist policy should not be to abolish adult heterosexual prostitution but rather radically to transform it. She therefore recommends not only legal solutions but also many extra-legal governmental supports for sex workers. Kuos uniquely comprehensive and systematic proposals provide an indispensable standard for all future discussions of adult heterosexual prostitution policy.--Alison M. Jaggar, University of Colorado, Boulder<br><br>Kuos inclusion of international data and diverse prostitutes voices is distinctly valuable and her policy recommendations most thought-provoking. This book is an important contribution to the feminist dialogue on prostitution policy. It permits us to move beyond the standard oppression versus choice arguments to other, less polarized perspectives on prostitution.--Rosemarie Tong, University of North Carolina, Charlotte<br>
